The next day...
Before eight o'clock in the morning, Mama Rossa came to Salma's room.
“For Madam,” greet Salma who is tidying up the table.
“Sit Salma, there's something I want to talk about,” pinta Mama Rossa who already sat on the sofa first.
“Good, Mistress,” the girl rushed to sit down.
Without asking about Salma's health, Mama Rossa put a small sheet in front of Salma, making the girl feel astonished.
“This is a sign of compensation for abuse committed by Kavin, and I hope you do not prolong the problem,” pinta Nyonya Rossa.
The girl picked up and read the little sheet.
A check of Rp. 100,000,000.00
Then the girl put it back in front of Mama Rossa.
The girl commented a smile on her face.“Madam is a woman and also a mother is not it?”
Mama Rossa nodded her head, a sign confirming the girl's speech.
“If the Madam had a daughter and there was a man who abused the Madam's child and did something rude. Then the man or his family suddenly came to give some money as a sign of compensation, did the Madam accept him? while the child of his psychic mistress is disturbed, a trauma that is difficult to heal, and that too in the long term!” salma said calmly to the old woman.
GLAKES!
Mom Rossa momentarily choked with her own saliva, and it was a little hard to breathe.
“The girl will definitely not accept the money no, because the money can not make the child recover from the trauma quickly,” said Salma who is still calm and gentle, Salma said, but it pierced Mama Rossa's heart as a mother and a woman.
After Salma said, the two of them fell silent, frozen, Mama Rossa's tongue grumbling to say. After Salma managed to turn things around.
“Mrs Rossa, did I know feel dejavu this morning, after seeing that check,” point Salma.
Mama Rossa flinching...
“Four years ago, my father was in an accident, hit by a man. The man never apologized to me as the child of the victim and came home when my father was pronounced dead on the spot.” The girl's heart began to be sad, remembering the incident, but she tried to continue the story.
“The man just sent someone to come deliver the money to my family. So difficult for the man to come and apologize, whether all rich people like that Madam.It is difficult to say Sorry, but who did wrong to the man to eliminate the lives of people who have nothing wrong with him. Just deliver some money, then the problem is finished just like that!” salam said with eyes that began to dew, the girl looked at Madam Rossa.
Mama Rossa again swallowed her saliva with roughness, her hands were crumpling each other, because she knew who the man discussed by Salma was Kavin.
For a moment the girl's fingers removed the clear circle that was already at the end of her tail.
“For four years I lived without both parents, coming from the village to Jakarta to continue my education, with the aim to change my own life. I fend for myself, there is no longer a place I complain and take shelter, there is only myself, Miss Rossa.” For a moment the girl paused her words.
“Genesis that happened to me yesterday, to whom I had to complain, said that if I was in pain, Madam,” Salma touched her chest that began to feel tight, clear circles began to fall on the cheeks of the girl.
“The lady knows what it feels like when always insulted, harassed...sick Mistress! And everything I hold here, on my chest, because there is no place to complain and share!” said the girl, while holding back her sobbing feeling so as not to break.
Mama Rossa could only be glued and feel guilty.
There is at one point a person will vent his heart, because it is not always someone to hold his own feelings. As strong as the mentality of someone who was hit by a storm, surely a moment will fall but immediately also quickly get up and stand up straight at his own feet.
DEG
Mama Rossa's heart was struck again by a small dagger, slice by slice of the words Salma said, it turned out to make pain in the soul of Mama Rossa. The old woman momentarily lowered her head, she was already cornered for the same actions as her son, both covering Salma's mouth with some money.
“Is there still a sense of empathy in the heart of the Madam, as a mother. Or Madam has no feelings, conscience with fellow women?” salma asked in a voice so soft.
Mama Rossa straightened her face and looked at the pretty girl's face. “I-mom still p-punya feeling.., “ somewhat stammered Mama Rossa answered her.
Somehow the shady and sad look of the girl, the more heart slashed Mama Rossa who from the beginning had the intention to benefit the girl, for the sake of her son gogon.
“Mistress, I know if Madam is afraid I report Mr. Kavin's actions to the police station, fearing that the family name will become contaminated and especially Mr. Kavin's credibility will have a bad impact on the company, until Madam shuts my mouth with money, right?” salma Prejuduga.
“Iya Salma...,” Mama Rossa's honest reply.
“Initial I did intend to report it to the police, Madam. But for now I undo my intentions, but that does not mean I accept the money. Nor does it mean that I forgive Mr. Kavin's actions and make peace with him, all actions must be in return,” Salma said.
There was a little relief in Mama Rossa's heart but together there was a bad taste with the beautiful girl.
“Salma, actually I can not say anymore for all your words all. Mother feels not a good mother to protect the child who is injured, it gives more wounds to her. I admit that I was wrong to protect the guilty person, so I intend to give money as compensation. But indeed this is in order to maintain the good name of the company Kavin,” Mama Rossa replied.
Mama Rossa shifted her seat, to get closer to the girl, then grabbed one of the girl's hands. The two old ladies' neutrals looked dewy.
“I-mom..” Mama Rossa exhaled for a moment.
“Mother's apologies, Salma,” powerless Mama Rossa shed her tears.
“Please forgive Mom if it is wrong..,” further Mama Rossa said. If conscience is touched, then whose heart will not dissolve with all Salma's words.
“I also apologize Madam if my words offend in the heart of Madam,” added Salma.
“No, you are not wrong Salma. Forgive this Mother,” pinta Mama Rossa, then hugged the body of her second daughter-in-law.
In Mama Rossa's arms, Salma's tears fell down again. The hug she had longed for, the embrace of a mother who had long disappeared in her life.
I'm sorry I wanted to use you, Salma.
seriate....
Ah somehow after writing this chapter, I cried 😭😭😭
Mama Rossa look at your second daughter-in-law, look carefully, do not waste your second daughter-in-law before there is regret.
